| Scientific Background | Growth/differentiation factor 8 (GDF8), or myostatin, negatively regulates muscle mass. GDF8 is held in a latent state through interactions with its N-terminal prodomain. GDF8, like numerous TGF-β family members, is a disulfidelinked dimer that is synthesized as a precursor protein which requires cleavage by a furin-like protease to yield an N-terminal prodomain and a C-terminal mature, signaling domain. |
| Molecular Mass | The protein has a predicted MW of 40.01 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 14 kDa and 32-38 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
| Sl Sequence | Glu35-Ser376 |
| Solubility | Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. It is recommended to resuspend at 0.5 mg/mL if the lyophilized powder is 100 μg or less, at 1mg/ml for 500μg or 1mg lyophilized powder. Do not mix by vortex or vigorous shaking. |
| Appearance | Lyophilized |
| Endotoxin Levels | Less than 0.1 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
| Expression System | HEK293 |
| Gene Id | O35312 |
| Amino Acid Sequence | Recombinant Rat Latent GDF-8 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the N-terminus.It contains Glu35-Ser376. |
| Storage | -20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt.;-80°C for 3 months after reconstitution.;Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
